I was impressed by the care the Guest Relations Officer gave me. I needed support to locate a nearest Forex and nearby shop and she was able to do that in the shortest possible time. The food was good enough for me and served at the right time

My Mum and I went for a spa day in the middle of the week hoping to get some much needed R&R. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly and made to feel right at home. The facilities were clean, comfortable and welcoming, and the atmosphere was incredibly relaxing. We were impressed by the attention to detail and the care that was taken to ensure our experience was exceptional. The masseuses were outstanding and provided us with the most relaxing and rejuvenating massages we have ever had. Their expertise and professionalism were evident from the start, and we both felt incredibly comfortable in their capable hands. We left feeling refreshed, reinvigorated and with a renewed sense of well-being. We cannot thank you enough for the incredible experience and we will definitely be returning to your spa in the future.…

Quick family trip to see some local attractions plus Naivasha. Lovely caring receptionist Esther. Clean, well appointed rooms. Breakfast improved from last visit but can still do better and staff in restaurant need to improve customer interaction skills. Bar/restaurant by reception has friendly staff and reasonable meals. My daughter really enjoyed her first ice-skating experience at the rink on the 2nd floor, very helpful man in charge there. Not enough time to try the swimming pool or cinema. All in all, a pleasant experience.
